Summary: From the author of the award-winning Things I've thought to tell you since I saw you last comes a new collection of poems steeped in a sense of dark foreboding. Jumping from the global to the everyday, many of the poems in Nigh chime with the mood that all is not right with the world. Even in the seemingly mundane, or the overtly beautiful, lay some uncomfortable truths, waiting to be unpicked. Nigh fully displays the confidence of a poet looking and thinking deeply about the world and offering it up in crisp and beguiling.
